The golden hour





Summer seems to have arrived here in London and the other night I noticed how beautiful the light was in the spare room. They say you really feel the heat when you're pregnant and I have to agree, normally I'd be basking in the sun but now all I want to do is take cover in our - luckily - cool house. As you can see I'm getting quite big (in a brilliant maternity dress that Hannah sent me) and the little fellow in there is apparently big and healthy too. Yes... turns out we're having a boy! We haven't decided on a name yet (there's still plenty of time) and now I'm curious; which are your favourite boys names? Have a great weekend everyone!

This post made me smile, what a great way to commemorate MJ. The music will always live on and make us wanna dance!

famapa said...

Hanna Åberg said...

vad mysigt! en pojke!

svårt med namn... jag skulle få sån beslutsångest över sånt. jag vet bara vilka namn jag inte gillar :D
ta inte: rutger, urban, börje, konny eller fritz. :( usch fult

famapa said...

hanna: jag ska föreslå dem alla!! ;0) no offence om nån urban läser det här men visst är det ett fult namn? det låter så hårt om du vet vad jag menar. uRRRBaNN! som ett slag i magen. hoppas du får en fin helg i sundsvall!

Lisa said...

Wow Famapa, you are just sooo beautiful!!!

mette/ungt blod said...

wow -im 22 +6 so we are pretty close! -and its so crazy how different baby-bumps can look!

Flora said...

A little boy! That's what I would have imagined you with :)
You look great!
I'm 24 weeks, it's very funny to check other mums-to-be and see how everyone is. Have a great and cool day!

ieva jansone said...

i agree with mette and hanna - boys' names are more "difficult" as girls' names. i have two sons: paul and jonathan maria (yes, his second name is maria). i like sebastian, jonas, elias, too.
i really love your pictures, they're so sensitive and warm. goog eye :)

and - nice baby-belly :))

xx,
ieva

Veja cecilia said...

vilken stor och fin mage! Det är svårt med namn... när vi väntade våra barn var vi inne på Harry rätt hårt, sen kläckte svärmor nåt om harry Potter å så var det kört. det känns som om vad man än hittar på så heter nån som någon inte gillar det! Vi kom tillslut på Jack men det tog mycket tid och möda men sen tog vi i hand och var båda överens om det på en gång! Lycka till:)

lamiekwet said...

You are a beautiful pregnant woman! Baby wanna dance!
PS: There are beautiful old fashion french names for little boys (Valentin, Louis, Marius.........)

miss milki said...

These photos are beautiful, the golden light is gorgeous!

lottie said...

i love per and steen. also basil and owen (both our grandfathers names). you're looking good. i owe you an email too :) x

malo said...

Min pojke heter Ivan så det är mitt favoritnamn. Pojknamn är så svårt. När vi väntade vårt tredje hoppades vi på en flicka eftersom det inte finns något som kan toppa Ivan. Vi funderade på Povel, Eskil eller Ernst. Vi fick en flicka...
All lycka!

I never tire of the name August

Aline said...

Nice pictures, as usual!
My favourite names are Auguste & Célestin, the french names of my 2 boys! :-)

Cath W said...

If we were to have another boy we would name him Zac. I'm also very partial to the name Harper. Good luck with everything - being a parent is an amazing experience.

Kristin said...

när jag hade fransk pojkvän funderade vi (på skoj) över en massa namn och kom fram till att Adrian och Oliver är de enda riktigt fina som funkar på både svenska, engelska och franska. adrian har ju gått ur modet till förmån för farfarsnamn, men det är min favorit ändå. lycka till i funderandet! :)

Maria said...

en liten kille wohoo! mina favorit namn sedan länge är felix o. fabian..
mina vänner fick just en pojke som dom döpte till elliott, det är också fint!

jättefin sista bild:)

Tilda B. Hervé said...

too cool!!! I have one week more than you... and I think we have the same silhouette....;-) perhaps because we'll have a boy too...

Lola Is Beauty said...

ohhhh what a bump! you look wonderful. Can't think of any names!x

Tricot Rouge said...

I think MARIUS is a wonderful name and French too :)

Marianne said...

You look lovely, Famapa! My boys are called August, Markus, Peder and Magnus - don't know if any of those names will fit?

By the way, the photo I bought from you is such a joy to look at every day. I'll show you its new home as soon as I get a better-fitting frame for it.

Enjoy your summer!

fliss said...

You look gorgeous Famapa.
Its an amazing experience when you just pop.... i certainly have in the past few weeks. I'm 25 weeks now, so not far off! But again tired of the comments from total strangers on how big you are!

So many boys names to choose from, you will have fun.... i love max, otto, arlo and louis. We still dont know what we are having but i feel it may be a boy.

Melanie said...

gorgeos - the photos and the dress!

jag har en förkärlek för unisexnamn. som noor och alex.

Grace said...

The names I will hopefully use for my baby boys are Finn and Noah. It may seem weird that someone who doesn't know you is so happy to see that you are pregnant, but it warms my heart!

famapa said...

grace: thank you! I'm with you on that one, I also feel joy when I see pregnant fellow bloggers or strangers, I can't help but feel excited too :0)

emma ::emmas designblogg:: said...

Vilken stor och fin mage du har! Jag är i vecka 30 nu, och vet inte ens om min mage är lika stor... :)

Och varmt, jaaa, prata inte om det! Jag får panik varje kväll för att jag är så varm!


Pojknamn... Ja, vår ska ju heta Elvis. Så det är favoriten just nu. Elton som andranamn. Annars gillar jag Otto, Agaton, Olle, Eskil, Milo, Sander och Bruno.
